REPORT
2.1 Objectives
The primary goals of this study were as follows:
1 To investigate existing arc flash hazard incident energy (IE) levels at the facility
2 To improve the coordination and selectivity between upstream and downstream overcurrent protective
devices at the plant, if possible, without compromising equipment protection boundaries and selective
coordination between upstream and downstream overcurrent protection devices.
3 To report all overcurrent protective devices with inadequate short circuit current interrupting ratings based
upon the computed available fault current.
4 Verify arc hazard levels at all panels 208VAC and above.
2.2 Methodology
Field data provided for the electrical power system at the facility was used to construct a digital computer model for
detailed electrical engineering analysis with the ETAP software program version 12.5.0. Some examples of the
typical field data required to perform this analysis include:
1 Motor Nameplate
2 Conductor Sizes and Lengths
3 Transformer Nameplate
4 Utility Thevenin Impedance
5 Breaker Ratings, Settings, and OEM Fuse Ratings and OEM Equipment Bus Short Circuit Rating
The ETAP computer model of the electrical one-line diagram of the store 0.48 kV and 0.208 kV secondary
distribution systems is shown in the one-line diagram.
The analysis includes a “Base” scenario based upon existing plant conditions and a revision with “minimum”
protective device pickup settings with modified device settings and ratings to provide the lowest possible arc flash

incident energy levels while achieving the best selective coordination between upstream and downstream
overcurrent protective devices without compromising existing equipment protection boundaries.
When a generator is included in the store, an alternate scenario is run for the generator supplied loads with the
main utility disconnected. In this instance the utility case resulted in a higher hazard energy level.
An arc-flash hazard analysis is an electrical engineering study’s main purpose to calculate the level of thermal
energy exposure to the personnel because of an electric arc-flash event [5]. Computed incident energy levels are
largely dependent upon the computed available fault current and device clearing times, which are produced by
short circuit current and protective device coordination studies.
Based upon the results of the arc flash hazard study, the rating of personal protective equipment (PPE) such as
gloves, arc-rated shirts and pants, eye protection, etc…can be properly selected for adequate personnel protection
as required by [5]. Note that there is a difference between fire-rated and arc-rated equipment. PPE needed for an
arc flash event should have an arc-rating and not just a fire-rated capability.
3 Calculation Method
SAMPLE
Arc Flash Analysis Process
IEEE 1584 establishes a nine-step process for gathering information and calculating arc flash hazards. The steps
are:
1. Collect Electrical System Data
REPORT
Collecting system data is the most difficult and time-intensive step in performing an arc flash hazard analysis, but
accurate information is vital to correctly calculating flash boundaries. A relatively small error at this point can
invalidate all further arc flash calculations. IEEE 1584-2002 lists the minimum information that should be gathered,
as shown in the table below. Information collected from facility's electrical system should be recorded and properly
documented on the one-line diagram or any other acceptable data collection database. The one-line diagram and
electrical database should be kept up to date as much as possible whenever modifications are made to the system
.

2. Determine modes of operation

Many electrical systems, especially in smaller commercial facilities, have only a single mode of operation. In large
facilities, however, it is common to find a number of operating modes, possibly including: emergency modes in
SAMPLE
which only backup generators provide power; multiple utility sources or generators that are switched in or out; and
motors or portions of the system that may start or cease operation. All of these different modes cause changes in
current at various points in the system, altering incident energy and flash boundaries.
3. Determine bolted fault currents
REPORT
The bolted fault current is the current that would flow through a short circuit consisting of two conductors bolted
together. It is the maximum current available to flow through a short circuit. This information is used to calculate the
arc fault currents. Bolted fault currents should be determined for each piece of equipment likely to require
maintenance or inspection while energized. Information on the minimum bolted fault currents is also needed but
typically considered by assuming a minimum number of contributing sources to the fault. It is possible that the
worst-case incident energy will occur when the bolted fault current is at a minimum.
4. Determine arc fault currents

The current that flows through an arcing fault may be significantly less than the bolted fault current, due to greater
resistance (especially in low voltage equipment). Arc fault current calculations are based on voltage, bolted fault
current, conductor gap distance, and other factors. IEEE 1584 presents two formulas for calculating arc fault
currents, one for use with 0.208-1 kV systems, and the other for systems between 1 and 15 kV.
For systems between 0.208 and 1 kV:
lg Ia = K + 0.662(lg Ibf) + 0.0966(V) + 0.000526(G) + 0.5588(V)(lg Ibf) - 0.00304(G)(lg Ibf)

For systems between 1 and 15 kV:
lg Ia = 0.00402 + 0.983(lg Ibf)

where Ia = arc fault current in kA; K = -0.153 for open-air arcs and -0.097 for enclosed arcs; Ibf = 3-phase bolted
fault current in kA; V = voltage in kV; G = conductor gap in mm
5. Determine protective device characteristics and duration of arcs

7|P age
PCX Corporation
33 Pony Farm Road
Clayton, NC 27520
919-550-2800
The time-current curves of upstream protective devices are the major factor in determining how long an arc-fault
will last. An effort should be made to determine the actual settings rather than relying on standard values, as these
may cause incident energy to vary greatly.
Another consideration when analyzing protective devices is that incident energy depends on both fault current and
time. Since protective devices are slower at lower currents, minimum fault currents often pose the worst-case arc
flash scenario as mentioned before.
6. Document voltages and equipment classes

Voltage and equipment class determine what equation should be used to find the flash boundary, as well as the
bus gap distances required by the equations. Systems operating at <1 kV use a different equation than those
operating between 1 kV and 15 kV.
SAMPLE
7. Establish working distances
The working distance is the distance from a potential arc source to a worker's face and chest. It is a critical quantity
REPORT
in determining the flash hazard boundary, as even an increase of a few inches in working distance can cause a
significant drop in incident energy. 18 inches is the working distance most commonly assumed in calculations, but
efforts should be made to determine actual working distances. Some usual working distances are shown in the
table below.
Equipment class Working distance

Low-voltage switchgear 24"
15 kV/5 kV switchgear 36"
Low-voltage MCCs and panel boards 18"
Cables 18"
8. Determine incident energies

Incident energy is defined in NFPA 70E as "the amount of energy impressed on a surface, a certain distance from
the source, generated during an electrical arc event." In an arc flash hazard study, the "surface" is the worker's
body at the assumed working distance. Incident energy is expressed in calories/cm2. IEEE 1584-2002 uses the
following formulas (which are also part of NFPA 70E annex D):
(1) E = 4.184(Cf)(En)(t/0.2)(610x/Dx)
Where E = incident energy in joules/cm2; Cf is a calculation factor (1.0 for voltages above 1 kV, and 1.5 for voltages
below 1 kV); En = normalized incident energy (from equation (2) below); t = arc duration in seconds; D = distance

from arc in mm; x = distance exponent (see table below)

(2) lg En = K1 + K2 + 1.081(lg Ia) + 0.0011(G)

where En = energy normalized for distance of 610 mm and arc duration of 0.2 seconds, in joules/cm2; K1 = -0.792
for open-air arcs and -0.555 for enclosed arcs; K2 = 0 for ungrounded/high-Z systems and -0.113 for grounded
SAMPLE
systems; G = arc gap in mm; Ia = predicted 3-phase arc fault current in kA
9. Determine the Arc Flash Boundary (AFB)
REPORT
The AFB is the distance at which incident energy exposure is about 1.2 cal/cm2, which is equivalent to the energy
required to cause the onset of a second-degree burn. The IEEE formula for calculating AFB is:
DB = [4.184(Cf)(En)(t/0.2)(610x/EB)]1/x
where EB is the desired incident energy at the boundary (usually 1.2 cal/cm2, but occasionally set at a value
matching proposed PPE rating), with other variables defined as for the incident energy equations above.
4 PROTECTIVE DEVICE COORDINATION STUDY
4.1 Discussion
The main objectives of the protective device coordination study are to prevent injury to personnel, to minimize
damage to system components, and to limit the extent and duration of service interruption whenever equipment
failure, human error, or adverse natural events occur on any portion of the electrical power system [4].
The term “selective coordination” simply implies that devices are carefully selected or adjusted to “trip” or operate
in a certain desired sequence during fault conditions, preferably beginning with the device closest to the fault
followed by the upstream protector(s). Using this methodology, extensive plant outages and safety hazards to
personnel and equipment can be avoided by localizing faults to the closest protective device [2].
Based on stated objectives, the settings of molded case circuit breakers (MCCB) and static trip units (STU) were
carefully analyzed and adjusted - wherever device adjustments were permissible - in order to obtain “selectivity”
9|P age
PCX Corporation

between upstream and downstream overcurrent protective devices without compromising equipment protective
boundaries, transformer inrush, and motor starting criteria.
4.2 Coordination Discrepancies

Coordination discrepancies are best shown graphically by TCC’s which overlap creating an incorrect device
tripping sequence. The undesired operation of circuit breakers and can be modified simply by adjusting trip settings
to greater than the computed fault current levels (And vice-versa). This operation is preferred to as “blocking” and
is represented mathematically by the following expressions:
1 |IF| > |Ip| : Trip (1)
2 |IF| < |Ip| : Do Not Trip (Block) (2)
3 Where:
4 IF = Fault Current
5 IP = Pick-Up Current
This functional dependence between IF and IP is illustrated graphically in Fig. 2[7]. In this study, very few
opportunities for adjustments were possible due to the installation of mostly MCCB’s with fixed settings and fuses;
however, one coordination discrepancy can be corrected by making proper adjustments to the long time and
SAMPLE
instantaneous settings of the upstream device and is graphically illustrated in Appendix “E.”
Trip Curves and Settings

Time-current characteristic tripping curves (TCC’s) of all applicable fuses, and circuit breakers found in this study
are provided in “Appendix B.” The curves are plotted on log-log scale and shown for a “Base” Case, which may
represent existing plant overcurrent device settings configured to yield a worst-case scenario (i.e. with settings
REPORT
placed at a maximum pickup value). In addition, a “Recommended” case is included with revised settings required
to attain selective coordination, and most importantly, reduce arc flash hazard incident energy levels (Where
possible). Also shown are transformer inrush/damage curves, motor starting profile curves, cable and conductor
thermal curves, and a miniature section of the one-line diagram where the devices are taken from. These curves
and points are plotted to provide a visual, graphical representation of the existing equipment protection boundaries
for proper coordination and application of overcurrent protective devices.
5 Short Circuit Study – Design Basis
5.1 Discussion
Short circuit current studies are performed to determine the magnitude of currents flowing throughout the
power systems at various time intervals after a “fault” or abnormal condition occurs [4], [6]. These currents
must be calculated in order to adequately specify electrical equipment bus withstand ratings and
overcurrent protective device interrupting duties.
Computer modeling using the ETAP Electrical Engineering software program by PCX was done by
expressing the per unit impedances of all relevant electrical power system components (i.e.,
Transformers, motors, cables, etc…) on a common 100 MVA base and using symmetrical components
theory to derive available fault current values at each specific bus.
The IEEE 1584 and NFPA 70E methodology only have equations to calculate the arc fault current for
three-phase bolted faults. It is likely that arc faults may initiate as line-to-ground faults, but the
methodology available makes the conservative assumption that the fault will quickly escalate to a three-
phase arc fault.

5.2 Utility Source Impedance Information

Data on Utility Transformer can be provided by ETAP if necessary.
5.3 ANSI/IEEE Fault Current Report

ETAP provides two short current calculation methods based on either ANSI/IEEE or IEC (European)
Industry Standards. The following summarizes the ANSI/IEEE short-circuit current method based upon
[8], [9], [10], [11]:
5.3.1 ½ Cycle Network

This network impedance is used to compute the momentary short circuit current and protective device
duties at ½ cycle after the fault occurs. This fault current is used to validate the following:
Device Type Duty

1 HV CB Closing & Latching Rating
2 LV CB Interrupting Rating
3 Fuse Interrupting Rating
4 SWGR/MCC Bus Bracing Rating
SAMPLE
5 Relay Instantaneous Trip Settings
The ½ Cycle Network is also preferred to as the “subtransient” impedance network, primarily because all
of the AC rotating machines are represented by their subtransient reactance (X”d), as indicated below:

6 ARC FLASH HAZARD ANALYSIS
6.1 Discussion
The ultimate goal of an arc-flash hazard analysis (AFHA) is to compute incident energy levels and arc flash
boundary distances at all relevant equipment locations in order to determine the thermal energy exposure to which
personnel can be exposed when performing energized work. The end-result is the proper selection of arc-rated
personal protective equipment (PPE), as prescribed by [5]. Incident energy (IE) level magnitudes, measured in
cal/cm2 or joules/cm2, are dependent upon the available 3-phase fault current computed at equipment buses, and
perhaps to an even greater degree, the actual total fault current clearing time of the upstream overcurrent
protective device(s).
Note that according to [1], arc flash hazard calculations pertain to three-phase
electrical power systems only. Single-phase power systems and equipment
encountered at the plant are not included in the arc flash calculations in this
study!

919-550-2800
Wherever possible, the primary objective of the recommendations section of this study is to reduce or “mitigate”
incident energy levels by adjusting device trip settings to operate at or below the computed arcing fault current.
Personal protective clothing and equipment (PPE) hazard/risk categories 0-4 are specified in [5] with the intent of
limiting skin burn injuries to “survivable.” PPE category 4 is the highest of the hazard/risk categories recognized by
[5] and requires a minimum arc thermal performance exposure value (ATPV) of 40 cal/cm2 to limit the heat transfer
through the material or fabric to a second degree curable burn based upon the Stoll curve. Incident energy levels
computed above 40 cal/cm2 are preferred to as “hotspots” within this report and energized work at these locations
– If mitigation techniques are ineffective – should be strictly prohibited.
Please note that this is a formal incident energy study which determines the actual incident energy available at
each location. The choice to report the energy levels as “Categories” defined by NFPA 70E 2009 was made to
“easily” communicate the amount of incident energy available. The selection of the ATPV or EB rating of the PPE
should factor an additional safety factor above the calculated energy value to reduce any potential break open on
the material.
6.2 Arc Flash Results
SAMPLE
A complete list of arc flash results based upon existing plant conditions are shown in Appendix “F” and
recommended changes are given in Section “1”
In addition, it has been well documented that a lack of timely electrical preventive maintenance and testing of
power circuit breakers could result over time in slower operating/tripping times leading to higher incident energy
levels [12]. Therefore, routine preventive maintenance testing of all plant protective relays and power circuit
breakers with solid-state trip devices is highly encouraged and recommended. The incident energy values
calculated in this study assume an “out-of-the-box” status for all circuit breakers. Their age and maintenance
REPORT
frequency has not been factored into the study.
Although higher available fault current levels can affect bus incident energy levels, the results of this study
demonstrates that long fault clearing times have an even greater impact on the incident energy calculation.
The arcing current variation (85% of original Ia) has been applied by default on all arc flash scenarios. The worst-
case incident energy (100% or 85% Ia) has been reported. Any location where the arcing current variation is a
major problem has been identified and recommendations made on how to mitigate the energy have been provided.

In instances where credible data was not supplied or available, valid engineering assumptions for the ETAP computer model
were made based upon the specific application and professional engineering experience and judgment. The following are
known assumptions for this study:
The incident energy has been conservatively estimated for most locations downstream from the main 1600 Amp circuit
breaker. Energy results for the 1600 Amp main circuit breaker compartment are not available since information on the
upstream primary side transformer protection is not available. An incident energy result projected based on a 1.5 sec
maximum exposure time has been provided. The actual incident energy value can be determined once the missing
information is obtained.

Method: IEEE - X/R is calculated from separate R & X networks.

HV CB interrupting capability is adjusted based on bus nominal voltage
Short-circuit multiplying factor for LV Molded Case and Insulated Case Circuit Breakers is calculated based on asymmetrical current.
Generator protective device duty is calculated based on maximum through fault current. Other protective device duty is calculated based on total fault current.
* Indicates a device with interrupting duty exceeding the device capability
** Indicates that the circuit breaker has been flagged as a generator circuit breaker. However, ETAP could not detect a single path, without a transformer, to the specified generator.
Therefore, this circuit breaker is treated as a regular circuit breaker in short-circuit calculations.
+ The prefault voltage exceeds the rated maximum kV limit of the circuit breaker - The rated interrupting kA must be derated.
